Nope, it is VERY rare to have the ability to upgrade graphics cards on any laptops.

no pretty much all macs are like that unfortunately, because its sealed deep inside and unremovable

Just to clarify, both macs and pcs are very difficult to upgrade the graphics chip. Unlike desktops, graphics cards are typically built to specification.
